If and when LEGO ever makes decent radii, I might switch. But till then, no. I build my models to operate. (that they sometimes have issues is a different matter, I’m not too proud...)

Oh, get over yourself. Mobody fears you. Or your models. :-)

I’m sure he’s talking about 8-wides in general. Like, I dunno, not just his....
